Description:
Apollo Dental Products’ Organizer™ Vacuum and Air Systems have been tested and approved by various regulatory test agencies.
The following list contains ADP file numbers that may be helpful if questions arise regarding installation inspections;
U.S. Food and Drug Administration .................... File Number: 2937927
City of Los Angeles Mechanical Test Labs............. File Number: M880066
The Organizer™ System should only be installed by qualified technical personnel. Should any questions arise during installation, call
our Technical Support Department between the hours of 6:00 am and 4:00 pm (PST) at 800/233 4151.
Unpacking the System:
1.Place boxed unit on level surface with enough space to lower the ramps and roll the unit onto the floor. This will require
36 inches plus the width of the pallet to clear the unit when it reaches the floor.
2.Remove cardboard shipping carton from pallet.
3.Unbolt shipping feet from platform.
4.Unpin shipping feet from front of unit; pull feet from mount in back of unit. DO NOT DISCARD MOUNTING FEET.
5.Fold down unloading ramps and verify the edges are on the pallet and ready to unload unit.
6.Unlock caster wheels to allow unit to roll.
7.With one person in front of the unit, and one behind it, gently roll the unit down the ramps and off the pallet to the floor.
8.Roll the unit to the equipment room or installation location.
9.Once unit is rolled into final installation location, lock caster wheels and re-install mounting feet by sliding feet into rear mounts
and bolting unit securely to the floor or wall.
Note: When installing the Organizer™ System, it is important to place the unit in an air conditioned room with
adequate ventilation. Failure to do so could cause premature loss of system performance and void warranty.
A 2 foot clearance is required on the left side and at least 6 inches on the back and right side.

Depending on the cart size of the Organizer™ unit being installed, disconnects with correctly rated breaker sizes and ground
connections will be required; one for the vacuum equipment and one for the compressor equipment within the cart. Refer to
preceding table for proper breaker size for the unit you are installing.
Low Voltage Control (24V)
18-3 thermostat wire must be installed from each remote control switch to the back of the Organizer™ Gauge/Control Panel.
The thermostat wire is connected into the existing switch wiring using the wire nuts existing on the switches. Lighted
switches require red and white wires for bulb, the red and blue connection control low voltage switching of vacuum and
compressor units.
NOTES: Dedicated electrical circuits with circuit breakers and approved grounds must be provided for the vacuum system, and the compressor system. Ambient
temperature must be within the range of 40 degrees Fahrenheit minimum (4 degrees C) to 100 degrees Fahrenheit (38 degrees C) maximum. All systems to be
installed according to local plumbing and electrical codes. Never operate the equipment without complete and proper grounding.
B. Plumbing Hook-up Requirements:
Vacuum Units:
Water Supply Line (Recommended)
1/4 inch (13mm) cold water supply line with shut off valve terminating in 1/2 inch FPT. The line must be flushed out prior to
connection to the vacuum unit(s).
IMPORTANT: Water is essential for the operation and longevity of the vacuum pump. The supply must not be
restricted or interrupted during operation. Water with high mineral content may cause mineral build-up and
create water starvation, leading to seal failure. A water softener and filter are recommended for this
situation.
Waste Line
Water and air exhaust to sewer line terminating in:
Option A- Floor sink.
Option B- A “P”-trap adapted to 3/4 inch (19mm) PVC slip connection. Local building codes may require a 1 inch
(25mm) air gap. The “P”-trap must not be located more than 6” above the floor.
Vacuum Line
Refer to the preceding table to determine correct vacuum line termination size for the unit being installed.
Vacuum Vent Line
2 inch PVC pipe vent to outside.
IMPORTANT: Continuously running sinks or cuspidors must NEVER be connected to the vacuum
piping system.
Compressor Units:
Operatory Air Line Termination
3/8 inch or 1/2 inch FPT termination to office supply line. Connect flex line from shut off valve on top of Organizer™ cart
to office supply line.
Fresh Air Intake
1 1/2 inch vent to outside terminating in 1 inch slip connection (Small and Medium Carts).
1 1/2 inch vent to outside terminating in 1 1/2 inch slip connection (Large Cart).
Remove Oil Filler Plugs
Remove plug(s) from oil filler necks on lubricated compressor heads and check oil levels before operation.

C. Installing the System:
1. Once the Organizer™ unit is in correct installation location, lock caster wheels (2 foot clearance is required on the left side,
and a 6 inch clearance in the back and right side).
2. Install floor or wall mounting feet horizontally on the floor or vertically into a secure wall to prevent unit from shifting.
3. Place condensate drain canister next to unit on the floor. Connect one end of 3/8 inch polyflow tubing into tee fitting below
desiccant chamber, and the other end into fitting on lid of canister.
4. Connect provided water supply line for vacuums into water supply line using provided 1/4 or 1/2 inch fitting.
Note: It is recommended that the water supply line be flushed with at least 5 gallons of water prior to connection
to the vacuum system. (Sediment in water lines of new buildings is common.)
5. Connect operatory vacuum line to the vacuum intake line located on either side of cart using provided suction hose.
Cement the suction hose using PVC glue.
6. Attach provided 3/4 inch vacuum drain hose to drain line on either side of cart and into a “P”-trap or floor sink.
Cement with PVC glue.
7. Connect vacuum exhaust line to 2 inch PVC vent pipe.
8. Install flexible compressed air line from valve on top of cart to operatory supply line.
9. Verify that all switches are in the off position, and connect high voltage electrical supply lines to approved disconnects with
proper breakers and grounds. See previous table for unit requirements.
D. Initial Start-Up:
Vacuum System
1. Open water supply valve at source and on manifold inside cart door. Check for water leaks.
2. Start the vacuum pump(s) by pressing all of the vacuum switches to the on position.
3. Check the drain line to verify that water is flowing through the system.
IMPORTANT: Do not run pump without full pressure water supply, or serious pump seal damage could result.
4. Check the vacuum gauge to ensure that all pumps are functioning properly. Vacuum pressure is preset at the factory to
10 inches Hg.
Compressor System
1. Make sure shut off valve on top of cart is closed.
2. Turn on compressor system. One switch controls all compressor heads in a multiple system.
3. The system will run until the storage tank pressure reaches 100 psi, then shut off automatically using a preset pressure switch.
4. Monitor tank pressure for two minutes to verify that there are no air leaks in the system. To check more closely apply soapy
water to plumbing joints to check possible leak paths. Care must be taken not to drip water on nearby electrical components
and avoid electrical shock.
5. Slowly open the supply valve on top of the cart to supply the office with compressed air. After intervals of 2 and 10 minutes
check the storage tank pressure gauge to confirm that no air leaks exist. If the pressure has dropped in this time, or the unit
has cycled, a leak exists. Locate all leaks and repair as necessary.
IMPORTANT: Seal All Air leaks! Air Leaks Are the Main Cause of Compressor Failure!
6. Be sure to complete and fax or mail in the warranty card for this unit within 10 days of installation to effect warranty.
7. Store this installation manual for future reference.

E. Vacuum Level Adjustment:
1. Open front access panel on cart.
2. The vacuum valve and filter are located horizontally behind the vacuum inlet strainer.
3. Remove the filter and valve from the PVC elbow.
4. Using a 1/4 inch nutdriver and a phillips screwdriver adjust the center mounted screw within the valve. Each full clockwise
turn increases the vacuum level by approximately 2 inches Hg. The vacuum level range is between 6 and 13 inches Hg
(27 to 44 KPa).
5. Reinstall filter and valve to test vacuum level and repeat steps as necessary until desired vacuum level is reached.
